FROM FREDERICK. The Encampment of the Maryland Ne- tional Guard—Notes. Correspondence of Tax Evzxiwe Bran. Frepenicx, Mp., July 19. This is the third day of life in Camp Jackson, the temporary home of the Maryland national guard at Frederick Junction. The preliminary work incident upon settling down to camp life has been completed, and the routine of the day goes smoothly on with few in' of sufficient moment to furnish so much as @ stray item of news It is a well-disciplined, orderly and business-like camp, and the men seem to be in unison with the officers in the de- sire to gain all the knowledge possible of mili- tary matters during the ten days assigned them im the tented field. Those who are granted leave of absence generally visit Frederick for & few a to tee the a me ett, the strenj of juor Se y but before 10 oaock at night there is scarcely a soldier to be found in town and quiet reigns supreme. The men are standing camp life well, but few having been compelled to seek the hospital. A permanent camp court-martial has been appointed, and Men guilty of disorderly conduct will be summarily dealt with. This has been necessi- tated by the action of a ‘of soldiers from the who visited the city Wednesday and whooped things up, much to their own satisfac- tion, but greatly to the annoyance of the citi- gens and the authorities, Mayor Lewis H. Dall and several members of the board of sldermen were opeuly insulted by the men. Word was sent ont to camp and Gen. Brown ordered a detachment of guards into the city to arrest all the men who were implicated in the trouble and order all others back to camp. The camp is the objective point every day of hundreds of visitors, and the dress "sat sundown are witnessed by bevies of pretty gi Wednesday next is the day set for the visit of the governor and the official inspection of the camp aad review of the men.

F. Schmidt, assistant secretary; D. S. Rice, F. . H. Comfort, treasurer; O. J. McClow, chaplain; F. Suman, marshal; Luey Leore, D.M.; Maggie Smith, guard; A. J. Willard, sentinel. The members of the Presbyterian church here are very much stirred up over the pros- pective resignation of their pastor, Rev. W. L. Auld, who has been in charge of the church for several years past. Considerable interest attaches here to the meeting at the court house to-morrow of the democratic county central committee, of which State Controller L. V. Baughman is chairman. It is likely that the political situation will be vigorously discussed and that some decision will be arrived at among the bosses concerning the candidates for the next county election. In connection with politics, an interesting phase of the situation in this county at present is the scramble for the county post offices and for the postmastership here. At Walkerville there are two contestants for the place, Dr. M. J. Zim- merman snd Thomas All th, with Messrs, Clem and Geosey as dark horses. . A fife and drum corps has been organized among the members of the United fire company here, with five fifers, four buglers and fourteen drummers. The officers are: L. P. Dixon, presi- dent; L. T. O. Frazier, secretary; Jacob Nur- baum, treasurer. ! Hon. Milton G. Urner and Messrs. T. D. Baker, D. C. Winebrener, Geo. W. Miller and Geo. W. Cramer of the Frederick County agri- cultural society visited Washington yesterday to extend to the President and members of the cabinet an invitation to attend the next annual exhibition of the society here in October next. They received the assurance of the President that he would come if possible and that several members of the cabinet would attend. A peculiar result of the extreme hot weather in this county last week is the large quantity of dead fish that h: been found in the creek near Jefferson. All along fhe stream hundreds of fish have been found in dull and weak condition. many of them dead, Ex-United States Marshal E. Y. Golds- borough of this city met with » severe acci- dent yesterday. He had been out nding. ‘and in leading his horse into the stable caught his foot in the sill and was thrown heavily forward on his face. Alarge muscle in one leg was ruptured and his face was badly hurt. Several car loads of wire have arrived here for the construction of the Western Union tele- graph company’s new line between Hagers- town and Washington. Gibson Smith, a young son of G. W. Smith of Frederick, was knocked down in the streets of the city —— id run over by a heavy Iumber wagon. He was seriously hurt. ‘Miss Mamie Jones of Washington is the guest here of Miss Carrie Baumgardner.— Miss Washington are summering at Jefferson, this county. F. M. ceoieaedemencerse THE COURTS.

A horrible wife-murder was committed near Bad River Station, Wis., Thursday. The victim was the pretty eightecn-year-old bride of Jo- seph Fuschs, and the murderer is the husband, man of about forty years of age. They had been married about two weeks, and made their home at Glidden. About 2o’clock in the after- noon they left on the got off near Morse, and them i THE EVENING STAR: WASHIN' BOOKS OF THE WEEK.

Goodloe, for many years a resident of this city, is a very full and satisfactory compilation of Revolutionary papers, and perhaps the most complete that has ever been made. It contains not merely all the more important addresses, declarations and resolves of the Continental Congress, the Congress of the Confederation, and of the “Congre Conventions, and As- semblies of the original Thirteen Colonies, but all such papers aud proceedings of the coun- ties, cities, and towns. A leading feature of the work is the presentation of a more ex- haustive account of the resistance of the peo- ple to the stamp act than can be found else- where in any one volume. What the general historians have described, in their own lan- age, is here presented in that of the actors coe momentous events. The work cont also, an account of the formation of the cot stitution and the inauguration of Washington.

George La Mont Nominated for Gover- nor—The Resolutions, The New Jersey state prohibition convention at Asbury Park yesterday nominated George La Mont of Bound Brook for governor. A long set of resolutions were unanimously adopted. They indorsed the platform of the national prohibition party, declared unaltera- ble opposition to the sale of liquors, fa- vored separate organization, condemned trusts, favored the preservation of the sanctity of Sab- bath, recommended the passage of laws pro- viding for the instruction of the public school pupils relative to the injurious effects of the use of liquors, wines and beers; indorsed the labors of the Women’s Christian temperance union and favored granting a vote to women, George La Mont isa member of the firm of Augustine Smith & Co., paper manufacturers, New York, and president of the First National bank of Bound py wnere he liv: Favoring the Annexation of Canada. The members of the Masssachusetts club to the number of fifty or more enjoyed their sum- mer outing at Point of Pines, near Boston, yes- terday afternoon. Ex-Gov. Wm. Claflin pre- sided during the earlier part of the meeting, then giving place to Hon. A. W. Beard. Among the akers were Senator Hoar, ex- Gov. Claflin, Hon. A. W. Beard, Congressman Robert W. Davis and Gen. John L. . Most of the speakers dwelt upon the question of Canadian annexation and were heartily in its favor. Senator Hoar, who made the principal speech, said that annexation with this country must from the necessity of the case be a Ca- nadit ee He did not think it wise for us to undertake to too frequently or too anx- iously indulge in @ public discussion of the uestion just now.

At a meeting of Lee Camp of Confederate Veterans in Richmond, Va., last night Governor Lee made an explanation of the finances of the Lee monument association. He said that the association had about $65,000 with which to pay for the statue and monument, The monu- ment, he said, was rapidly nearing completion, At the request of the governor the camp agreed to loan the association the $5,000 collected by them for use on the occasion of the laying of the corner stone of the monument in October, 1837. Gov. Lee said the monument associ tion needed about $11,000 more than they no have, with the addition of the loan made by thecamp. He thought the monument could be unveiled in November next. The casting of the bronze equestrian statue, he said, was be- un in Paris July 15 and would, no doubt, be ished by October. —— a Beirne Leads for Governor.

Wood himsel, RAVAGES OF A CLOUD-BURST The Little Kanawha Valley Swept bya Flood—Several Lives Lost. ‘The cloud-burst in the little Kanawha valley on Thursday night, of which brief mention was made in Tax Stam yesterday, proves to have been much more serious im its consequences than was at first supposed. It has completely flooded the country, destroying many lives, carrying off thousands of dollars in property and ruining the crops for many miles, The deluge fell about dusk and continued to fall in torrents, doing much damage. ‘The worst of the storm struck the lower side of the Kanawha, filling small tributaries from bank to bank and ending in the worst flood within the recollection of the oldest inhabit- ante. In three hours the Kanawha raised 6 feet and ran out with such velocity that it car- ried eve: ‘ing before it, At this point thou- sands of logs and a number of boats went out or were sunk. The Little Kanawha lumber com lost 2,000 logs; West's mill, ten rafts; ger, several fleets; W. P. Padden, five barges with ties, several’ of which were caught below. Keover & Co. lost four barges of coal; Miller, three rafte and 2,000 ties; Taylor, one fleet timber; Chas. Wells, four bi s. In one hour 5,000 logs went out. Mrs. H. Tucker, Martin Lawless,and an unknown man were drowned, ABOVE THE DESTRUCTION WAS STILL GREATER. Big Tygart valley is completely ruined. The big mill near its mouth went out and took the Tygart bridge with it. In the valley all the fences. crops and much live stock was lost. At Chesterville, a small town about 10 miles above, half the residences were carried off bodily and left in corn fields. In Clay district a fine church and three dwellings were wrecked. About noon information was received that the steamer Oneida had been wrecked and sunk at Enterprise, above, Still later a report came _ the a C. C, Martin was ane at urning Springs. The Little Tygart i Te- ported completely ruined. Heatherington’ store, Capt. Spencer's residence, C, P. Cooper’ residence, and that of J. W, Smith are com- letely demolished, but no lives are reported as yet. THE WORST STORY OF ALL comes from Morristown, a small village near the head of Tucker creek, where the cloud- burst concentrated in all its fury, coming down in the village about midnight and totally de- stroying it, together with many of its people. The first report gave the loss at eleven, but later news seems to fix the loss at a greater number, The houses’ of the citizens are said to have been picked up and hurled against each other in such short space of time that no chance of escape was given the people. Among those lost at Morristown are Jake Kiger, his brothers Joseph and Thomas; a men named Bailey, Orrville West, wife and child. The body of a man believed to be another Morristown victim was found on Richardson farm this mening. At Pill Brush all bridges and culverts are washed away and it is impossible to reach or communicate with that point or any other on upper waters. It is impossible now to enu- merate the loss even here, as the river is sti rising and tearing everything loose. A family boat containing three or four persons went out during the night and it is believed all are lost, as the last seen of them was when the woman held up a child in her arms and beck- oned for assistance as they disappeared in the flood. Later a freight train on the Ohio River railroad broke through a trestle at Harris Ferry, completely wrecking the train and fa- tally injuring Wm. Neptune, an employe. The wreck was caused by a heavy washout. Balti- more and Ohio trains delayed by washouts at Kanawha station have reported that lock No. 1, above Parkersburg, on the Little Kanawha, was giving way before the flood. Gen. Boulanger’s Prophecy. Gen. Boulanger has issued o manifesto, in which he declares that the law against multiple candidates in France is a blow against universal suffrage. The measure, however, he says, will not prevent the nation making known its sov- ereign will, He continues: “Asa protest against this odious violation of law the national com- mittee has decided that I shall present myself as a candidate for the councils general in eighty cantons, The verdict of the people of those cantons will be the prelude to the grander tri- umph that is near at hand, Before long the ‘gang’ that now dishonors the country will be bere g swept away and internal peace re- stored,” ——-0e——____ Making it Warm for Dr. McDow. A Charleston, 8. C., dispatch says: McDow sent in his resignation as surgeon at the La- fayette artillery Thursday night, At the meet- ing Bolger, the commanding officer, declared that the resignation would not mend the mat- ter, and that the proper way to expel McDow was to prefer charges and demand a court- mat McDow holds a commission from the governor as surgeon of the company. The meeting finally ae about midnight, after having tabled McDow’s letter of resigna- tion, This is a decided victory for McDow, but it will probably lead to the dissolution of the company, as all the old French emigres and their descendants who are veterans or honorary members have determined to sever their con- nection with the company. Their letters of resignation will be handed in at the next meet- ing unless the company shall in the meantime expel McDow. A Singular Suit. A rather remarkable suit was commenced yes- terday in the common pleas court in Philadel- phia by John Haeberle to recover $50,000 from Chas. Beyer, whom he claims so worried his wife by false and malicious charges as to drive her to suicide. The statement of the prose- cutor relates that Beyer had threatened to “bring the wife of Haeberle to the ground and trample her under his feet” on account of her refusal to testify ina suit brought by Beyer against her husband; that he sought to degrada her by charging her openly and covertly with stealing and secreting money from her hus- band, and pursued her with threats and black- mailing letters until the poor woman, being of @ nervous disposition, was worried, harassed, and annoyed, until on June 20 last she was driven to take her life and terminate her ex- istence with poison. The facts were developed iu the main at the coroner's inquest, but there appeared to be no law by which Beyer could be criminally prosecute: Hence the present suit. oe The Divine Plan of Creation. Prof. George J. Romanes in the Forum.

John L, Sullivan arrived in New York on the Chicago limited train soon after 7 o'clock leat night. As the train hove in sight in Jersey City a carriage was driven up to one side of the gates to convey the hero of Richburg across the river. After most of the passengers had gotton off the train a well-built, athletic man walked briskly along the platform, looking neither right nor left, making rapid strities toward the gate where the carriage awaited. As he reached the end of the large platform he was recognized by the multitade and cheer after cheer went up, The hero lifted his hat to the cheering crowd and was quickly driven aboard the boat Baltimore, which had been held ten utes ok Philadelphia Ir Topresentative a boarded the boat and eft s sho with the ee pugilist.

Rather than run the risk of ar- rest in a city where he has few friends among the sporting men_he decided to cross over into Queen Victoria's domain. On Tuesday he kept well under cover, awaiting developments. arrival of Detective Norris with a uisition from Governor Lowry of Mississippi increased Mitchell's apprehensions and a secret visit was made to his counsel in the Stewart building. When it was learned beyond a doubt that Norris was bent upon arresting the trainer of Kilrain, and that the New York police were as- sisting him, Mitchell's fears were undisguised. He saw in prospect along term of imprison- ment in a strange country. “What would you advise?” he asked of Law- yer Peter Mitchell. ‘Do you consider me safe in New York or anywhere in the United States?” continued the British pugilist, in evident dis- tress, The lawyer told the pugilist that his case was similar to Red Leary’s and that if Governor Lowry merely wanted the trainers or backers he could eurely get them. On Wednesday evening a man closely muffled up in a summer ulster, wearing a slouch hatand presenting the appearance of a workman in search of <r ment, boarded an Erie train at Jersey City. took a seat in thesmoker. As the car drew out of the tunnel the traveler tilted the soft brim of his hat a little and lighted a cigar. He gazed thoughtfully out of the window, and it would have needed a sharp eye indeed to have recog- nized in the dilapidated traveler the swell En- glish pugilist, Charlie Mitchell.

Charley Johnson walked into our quarters just before the fight and said that the sheriff was there and that they would all get arrested. Said he: ‘John will go into the ring and make a speech and pacify the crowd.’ “ ‘No you don’t,” said I. ‘If you folks gointo the ring, so do we.’ “We went to the ring soon after. Then came the question of referee. After considerable talk and several propositions had been made and rejected Johnson's ultimatum was given: ‘It'll be Fitzpatrick or no fight.’ “Then Mitchell put in his oar and agreed to Fitzpatrick, That settled it, “About the foul Sullivan committed, It was the most deliberate foul I ever saw in a ring. Of course I immediately claimed a foul, and Mitchell back me up rather faint-heartedly, The referee said he didn’t see the foul,” con- tinued Donovan, ‘‘and when I turned around, Mitchell had Kilrain up to the scratch. ‘Don’t fight any more, Jake,’ I said. ‘Yes, I "he replied, doggedly, and on he fought.
